UFO Sighting Report

Date:

March, 26, 2006

Location:

Santa Barbara, California, United States

Summary:

Between 7 and 8 o'clock p.m. I was sitting in a hammock overlooking the ocean, dozing off. A loud rushing noise woke me up in time to see the 'craft' begin its trek across the horizon. For two minutes I stared, transfixed, at this ship that was most assuredly not human made.

Nighttime

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Shape: Cylindrical in the middle, with protruding top and bottom. Lights around the craft (one layer surrounding circumference) and other layers on the protruding top and bottom. Two rows on each protrusion and one around the center. The lights were bright and colorful: red, blue, green, pink, orange and an aquamarine color, unless that is the blue. The colors were the distinguishing factor. There was a device near the center right that spun around, with about ten to twelve multi-colored lights inside swirling around in patterns, as if searching.

Size of Object(s)

Relative: 2.5 inches Actual: 175 ft. long, 75 ft. tall

Description of Area / Surroundings

Nice beach town. Quaint and quiet: you can hear the crickets. If anyone was outside at this time, they should have heard this. The beach is a block away from the house and it flew directly over the water.

Full Description & Details

I was sleeping in a hammock near the beach, on the balcony of a house up the street. I was dozing off and near sleep when a rushing wind noise caused me to open my eyes. Cars had been driving by but their noise was not enough to wake me up. This noise sounded different: like a loud car, but too loud and like it was leaking air quickly out of somewhere. I opened my eyes to check it out, and the first thing my eyes fell on was the 'plane' that had just appeared in my left peropheral vision. I was immediately attached to it, knowing it was different than anything I had ever seen, but not immediately suspecting anything alien. II saw the craft when it was in the left of the sky. The noise woke me up right in time to see it come into the atmosphere, or begin its 'journey' across the sky as far as I could see.

It moved slowly and horizontally to the right, flying sideways it appeared. It had many different colored lights shining from it: blues, greens, reds, pinks, and oranges. There were lights (assorted colors) surrounding its circumference. There was also a separate light device spinning around, on the upper right hand 'corner' of the craft, like a strange searchlight, also with many different colored lights. It made a sound while travelling through the air that was louder than and unlike planes I have heard. When it had crossed the entire hemisphere, it disappeared.

The environment was dead quiet as it was in the sky. After it was gone the entire sound of the atmosphere changed. Dogs began to bark and the air pressure shifted, along with the wind. It was noticeably different, like something powerful just left the atmosphere and the animals, as well as I, felt it inside.

The COLORS and the slow, creeping speed convinced me that this was a "UFO:" I have never seen anything man-made with that much decorative color - it was like a rainbow techno light show, that vivid. Also, the fact that I was near sleep and the sweeping noise woke me up RIGHT IN TIME to see this entire flight strikes me as uncanny. A car wasn't even driving down the street: although my eyes were closed, it is as if the sweeping rushing noise was the sound occuring as it entered our atmosphere, but I don't know. I have never claimed to have seen anything alien before but after this, I am set. When I went back into the house I exclaimed my discovery, another man walked in at that exact time and freaked out because he saw it too, describing the same colors and sensations. It was uncannily strange but I want to know so bad what it was!

Let me know if you find anything!!!!!!

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

NO this was unlike ANY of that.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Ambivalent before. Didn't know, didn't really care, didn't think I would ever see anything to convince me one way or the other. Not a UFO reader at all. After seeing this, I believe. I don't see things I have imagined and could not create something like this, anyway. Like I said, it was surreal but I know it was something else.
